SubOptic 2022 Postponed:
New date 13-16 March 2023
Due to the ongoing uncertainty around COVID-19, the difficult decision has been made by the SubOptic Executive Committee to postpone SubOptic 2022. This means that SubOptic 2022 will not be taking place in April 2022 as originally planned, but 13-16 March 2023. We intend to re-schedule the event as a live event in Asia with HMN Tech as the host sponsor. The committee will brief all sponsors and delegates as soon as possible on the revised plan.
We’d like to thank HMN Tech and our event partner Terrapinn for their ongoing support and flexibility through this period and look forward to announcing a new date very soon. Full details to follow.

To have a paper chosen for oral or poster presentation is a notable achievement, recognition by your industry peers of the excellence of the work, and this will be as true as ever for SubOptic 2023.
